As we all know, NMN has a lot of benefits for the body, and its main role in slowing down the aging process is unrivalled by many health products, but many people think that NMN is only for middle-aged and old people, which is a big mistake. So, what age should you take NMN? What should be the intake for different ages? What kind of effect will be achieved by intake at different ages?


At what age should NMN be taken?

It is well known that there has been a great deal of clinical data confirming the usefulness of NMN as one of the premium anti-aging options available today. So when exactly does the human body start to age?

In fact, the aging process is initiated during the period of growth and development, which is 16 years old for men and 14 years old for women. Thymus hormone production, which regulates immunity, begins to decrease at a rate of 0.8 to 0.9 per cent per year, and by the age of 80 or 90 years, thymus secretion has been dissipated. Other tissues and organs decline at a rate of 1 per cent per year from the peak of development (21 for women and 24 for men).

Aging has its own internal correlates of biological information of aging, such as pulse wave, lung function, electro-audiometry, visual acuity, bone density, serum dehydroepiandrosterone, serum insulin-like growth factor, and T-lymphocyte apoptosis rate, etc. They are all detectable. All of these aging-related indicators begin to decline slowly from age 20 to 25 years onwards. after age 50, the rate of aging accelerates and you will suddenly feel old at some point.

Therefore, the work of slowing down the aging process should start from now on! At the latest, we should start from the age of 40, because at this time the body's internal organs have begun to gradually decline in function, the information transfer function between the cells will gradually decline, at this time it is necessary to take anti-aging products in a timely manner, to enhance the body's content of NAD +, so as to repair the DNA, repair the cells and the cells between the normal state of transmission, in order to achieve the effect of delaying the aging process, to prevent or slow down the onset of disease.

The earlier you start anti-aging efforts, the better. Otherwise, waiting until problems like tooth loss, hair loss, reduced hearing, and declining organ functions appear means it's relatively late to take action. Therefore, we can conclude: NMN can be taken after the age of 25!


What NMN Dosage Should Different Ages Take?

Since the level of NAD+ in the body gradually decreases with age. Thus, people younger than 18 years of age are at the saturation stage of NAD+ in the body, additional NMN supplementation is not recommended.

Young people aged 20-25 years old, due to the fast pace of modern life, irregular life, may lead to an early decline in the body's NAD+ levels, can take 2-3 capsules per week to assist the body to restore the level of NAD+.

Men between the ages of 26-35 are generally busy at work, while women are often affected by work, childbirth and other factors, resulting in hormonal fluctuations, leading to an accelerated decline in NAD+ levels, it is recommended that people in this age group can take a daily supplement of 1 capsule of NMN, to help the body regain its abundant energy.

Middle-aged people aged 35-55 years old, with the growth of age and the increase of life pressure, may lead to difficulty in falling asleep, mental instability and other symptoms, and may cause some chronic diseases, it is recommended to supplement 2 capsules of NMN per day, to improve the quality of sleep and improve the state of sub-health!

According to the current literature report on the safety of human consumption, the recommended daily supplement intake of NMN is 500㎎. For those who are over 55 years old, the amount of NMN can be increased or decreased according to the individual's feeling.


When exactly is the best time to take NMN?

Published on February 28, 2021 in the interdisciplinary journal "iScience" under the "Cell" family, two mathematicians from the University of Waterloo in Canada used computer models to simulate the intricate relationships among human metabolism, aging, and circadian rhythms. According to their simulation of the human biological clock, they suggest that NAD+ metabolism levels and SIRT1 activity peak around noon each day. Timing NAD+ supplementation to coincide with this peak is believed to yield optimal effects.

As we can see, this is a study that used computer simulations and mathematically deduced, and is neither the result of human clinical trials nor the conclusion of animal testing.

In other words, this study was not designed to tell you to take your anti-aging supplements at the wrong time, but rather to examine the relationship between aging and the human biological clock. Because of this, the study simulation presupposes conditions that are standard biological clocks. In real life, different ages, different routines, and even different lighting in the home can affect the biological clock to varying degrees. For example, a person who goes to bed early and wakes up early all year round is not likely to have the same biological clock as someone who stays up late.

However, this might leave some people feeling more perplexed: "I don't even know what my biological clock is like. Does that mean I'll be even more unsure about when to take anti-aging supplements?"

In fact, there's a simpler approach: Dietary supplements are not medications, so there usually isn't a strict timing requirement. The "right time" is generally whenever feels most suitable for your body.

Then take NMN as an example, some people take it in the morning or at noon, there is no obvious difference in physical sensation, as good as eating and sleeping well, then you can choose to take 1 capsule in the morning, 1 capsule in the afternoon, or 2 capsules in the same time slot. There are also some people who tend to be hyperactive after taking NMN at noon, thus affecting their sleep at night, so taking it in the morning is actually a wiser choice. As for the evening, it is not recommended to take NMN at night since the feedback from those who have taken it shows that not a few people are refreshed after taking NMN at night.


How to take NMN for better absorption

Normally when we take medication, we often neglect the way we take it. In fact, when taking NMN health products, it is recommended to take them with warm water. Warm water can help the medication to pass through the throat and oesophagus to the stomach, which is conducive to the disintegration, dissolution, dilution and absorption of the medication in the stomach. Hot water will not only cause damage to the mucous membrane of the mouth and oesophagus, but also affect the effect.

Drinking too much water while taking the medicine is not good because it will dilute the stomach acid, which is not conducive to the dissolution and absorption of the medicine. Generally speaking, 1 cup of lukewarm water is enough for solid medicines. (After taking the medicine, you can drink more water and increase exercise to improve your metabolism).

Therefore, warm water is the best choice for taking medication.


Are there different effects of taking NMN at different ages?

Generally speaking, taking NMN at different ages will bring different results, because each person at different ages has a different physique and a different amount of NAD+ in the body, so the final results achieved will be different. For example, take sleep as an example: if a 20-year-old youth takes a capsule of NMN in the afternoon, it may lead to hyperactivity and thus difficult to enter sleep; while a 60-year-old person taking the same amount of NMN at the same time can achieve the effect of improving sleep and falling asleep quickly.

Teenagers from 20 to 25 years old: after taking it, they will find that their skin condition will become better, and their mental condition will be very good during the day, and they will concentrate at work and speed up the work efficiency.

Young people between 26-35 years old: after taking the same skin condition will be better, increase skin elasticity; improve sleep, promote metabolism.

Middle-aged people aged 35-55 years old: improve the fine lines of the skin, make the skin elastic; improve sleep; reduce hair loss; promote metabolism at the same time will help the body to reduce the three highs, improve lipid metabolism.

Middle-aged and elderly people over 55 years old: delay aging, improve skin condition, improve sleep, enhance bone and muscle capacity, improve the body's chronic diseases (such as hypertension, arthritis, presbyopia, and neurasthenia, etc.) to improve insulin sensitivity, and so on.


So while we can't change the results of aging, we can slow it down. Since the human body's first stage of aging is roughly 20-25 years old, starting to do anti-aging work at this stage will undoubtedly have the best results. If you miss the best time, then start now, this minute this second is better than the next!
